The words of Elena Rybakina after Anna Kalinskaya’s withdrawal

After detaching her pass for the Wimbledon quarterfinals due to Anna Kalinskaya’s withdrawal in the second set, Elena Rybakina, with great sportsmanship, in the post-match interview contained her excitement and dwelt on her opponent’s forfeit.

"It è definitely not how I wanted to finish the match. Anna è a great player who is finding rhythm and continuityà on every surface, forò I knew she had some injuries. If her problem was in her wrist, of course, it was very difficult to keep playing. I didn’t want to win like this; and I would just like to wish her a speedy recovery" these are the hot statements of the world number four.

The match had also started positively for Kalinskaya, who è managed to find the break immediately, taking a 3-1 lead. Later, however, Jannik Sinner’s fiancée è was forced to call a medical time-out due to a nerve problem in her right arm.

The Russian player tried to grit her teeth, but as the match went on, the pain became unbearable, all while Rybakina posted a five-game run of consecutive games, winning the first set 6-3.

In the second set, the world number four placed two more breaks in a row, at which point Kalinskaya decided to raise the white flag, leaving the court in tears, under the sad and worried gaze of partner Jannik Sinner.
